Speaking of treatment in the hot zone, however, does anyone currently have or is
anyone working on an intrinsically safe, decon-able mechanical CPR device? It
seems to me that any amount of CPR prior to rescue would be beneficial,
especially if it was a recent, witnessed arrest, and you're facing an extended
rescue situation where CPR is otherwise impossible (confined space), or if
you're short on medical personnel in your rescue crew.

Fatality reports abound. We are attempting to put together a treatment protocol
to treat H2S exposure. Example: Man down in the pre-load tank. Rescuers must
treat then remove fromthen tank. Anybody ever hear of such an attempt? Any
survival stories out there? What treatment was credited for the clinical save?
